This review comes from someone who has only had 3-hours of play so far. I'm going to start by simply saying THIS GAME IS AWESOME! 10/10 for me already, and I've barely begun. The game starts with mindless button bashing to smash up the environment, then it nicely progresses and teaches you to use DK's moves as you continue. Then you progress and start moving to different stages which are absolutely gorgeous and FULL of replayability. This game has already drawn me in and no 3D platform game has done that since Mario 64. I already know that I will be revisiting levels to explore and collect everything they have to offer and find all the secrets. Nintendo have created an absolute banger here, it is worth the price and a must for platforming and DK fans, this game is going to make those Switch 2 haters think again and finally go out and buy the Switch 2, even just for this game, it is worth it! I'm not going to mention any spoilers, to be honest I haven't got that far in the game yet, but so far I am completely hooked. People are already saying Bananza has game of the year potential, and I can see why. It is amazing fun. Buy it. Play it. Smash it (the in game levels, not the physical game, don't smash the game) BANANAS!!! lol - I have to get back in to it right now so I'm ending my review. I love this game.

Loved the show, a great reboot. Binge watched the entire thing 3-times now. I'm only giving it 4-stars because it ended far too soon for me, it had a lot of potential to keep going. It story felt a bit unfinished to me. They could have even done a "Will Robinson" spin-off show if needed. I wish it would come back.

Visual are good. That's about it really. The movie is boring and the songs are instantly forgettable.

The worst Bad Boys movie so far, and hopefully the last film. This film felt like a direct copy of the elements that made the Fast and Furious movies great (before the F&F movies got bad), it really does feel like Bad Boys is trying to copy Fast and Furious. I was a fan of Martin Lawrence during his early career and he was great in Bad Boys 1 & 2 but now he's just not funny, his acting is really bad and any humour feels forced out of him to the point where I actually feel sorry for the guy. Will Smith is NOT an action star anymore, those days are over, he needs to stop trying too hard to relive his youth and early success. The entire film just feels like I've seen it before, and I have, in Fast and Furious.

The game so far is great and the new mechanic makes you think and strategize more and I find it an interesting new way to play. Collecting echoes of inanimate objects to use to solve puzzles and reach new areas is fun and collecting monster echoes allows strategy when in combat with other monsters, which to use against which enemy etc. I love using Crows for weak monsters as they also collect rupees that get dropped. As you progress through the game you collect more and more echoes, though the trampoline and bed are the ones I use the most so far to get to new areas, build bridges etc. I think I'm currently at the half way point having defeated a few bosses and gained more hearts and Tri energy, which allows you to create more echoes at once as you level up, you can also level up "Link" mode as you progress so you can use Link to fight for longer. Fighting bosses is fun by utilising enemy echoes to fight for you, choosing the right ones for both speed and damage caused. The bosses are easy once you figure out their fighting patterns and it took me a few attempts on all of them before I defeated them, don't get frustrated just keep trying until you get it down. And of course when a boss is on their knees, you can quickly transform in to Link to deal some deadly blows, just use it wisely. It's nice knowing that Link is still with you in spirit. Don't listen to the bad reviews, this is a solid and fun Zelda game that keeps getting better and better as you progress. I think a lot of people expect it to be like other Zelda games but that would defeat the purpose of playing as Zelda, if Zelda had a sword and arrows etc then it would basically be Link dressed as Zelda. This new Echo mechanic offers a whole new challenge to the series and something a bit different, I love it so far. Can't wait to see what's coming next as I continue to progress. *possible spoiler* I just got a horse :)

I'm not feeling it. I've had the game for a week, playing on and off, but I'm not feeling it. The camera...… the camera in this game is so annoying, having to use the right-stick to constantly move the camera so you can see where you're going is a big frustration. I hate having to separately control the camera while playing games, just give me a movement stick and some action buttons that's all I want, it's more like Camera's Odyssey than Mario Odyssey, feel like I'm controlling the camera more than Mario himself half the time. The controls are a pain as a lot of moves depend on using motion control which is frustrating, there are button combo alternatives to the motion controls but they are hit and miss in Mario doesn't always perform the move you want him to do, beyond your basic jump and ground pound, the other moves are annoying to pull off consistently. I know Nintendo want to utilise the abilities of their Switch console, but motion controls have no place in a Mario game, I don't want to be waving and tilting the controller around like an crazed monkey while playing, just give us standard controls. The levels are okay, I've gone through 4 areas now doing basically the same thing, run around, collect moon bits, defeat a stupidly easy bunny boss and off to the next zone. The occasional transition from 3D to 2D Mario is pretty fun, there's not enough of it though and feels a bit odd, like what is the point. The novelty of using your cap to control other characters in the game quickly wears off, there was a t-rex in one of the levels which not only seemed out of place for a Mario game but also served no purpose other than smashing a wall. The graphics are great and the levels seem to have plenty to explore and discover, but the clunky controls and annoying camera spoil it for me. If I ignore everything I've mentioned above I'm still not feeling that Mario magic in this game, Mario 64/Galaxy were far superior games in my opinion, I'm a massive fan of Mario games but this one is just … rubbish, I'm sorry but it is. I hope the next Mario game is better than this - please just go back to traditional Mario, no gimmicks like a stupid cap, and fix the controls and the camera. My expectations for this game were high, serves me right for listening to the hype. I will keep playing on and off, but this game is not on my excited list.

I thought this film was okay, not great though. It had a lot of characters that I weren't expecting which made it a bit of fun and there were a few laughs throughout. However, it felt like it was dragging, and an hour in to the film I found myself thinking, "Come on hurry up!" because I kind of just wanted it to end already. For me the overall plot didn't even make sense, I was waiting until the end in the hope I would finally figure out what was going on, but still it didn't make much sense. I'm still confused now. You will enjoy it for a few laughs and the cameos (no spoilers) but it's not a great movie. I'll probably watch it again when it's on TV in a few years time. If there's nothing better on.

I'm not sure if the people giving 5 star reviews actually saw the movie. The Marvels is one of the worst Marvel movies ever. It's a complete mess, it is just so terrible. They tried to make Nick Fury's character funny, and they failed, I felt really bad for Samuel L Jackson in this movie. The movie was hard to follow, it was all over the place, there was no sense of danger or build up to the usual epic finale you expect in Marvel movies, and I just felt like I wasted 2 hours of my life watching it. The plot of the movie was actually good, it had potential to be something great, but they executed it poorly. The Marvels, like Eternals, is an instantly forgettable movie in the MCU and I won't be watching it again any time soon. I gave it 2 stars, 1 because its a Marvel movie, and 1 for the credit scene, which was the only part of the whole movie that was worth watching.

I love this show, it is, or was at the time, a perfect reflection of most peoples home lives. I could completely relate to this show when it was first broadcast. If you ask me, I think the BBC should do a prequel and show Jim and Barbara as they were when they were younger, there are loads of people mentioned in the show that didn't make an appearance but I'm sure would make good characters as their friends, and plenty of events mentioned that would make good story bases. They could pay tribute to Aherne by having her as a little girl. Why don't they make shows like this anymore. TV had gone down hill. .

Went to the toilet 25 minutes in to the movie as nothing exciting had yet happened, got back and was hoping it would get better, sadly, it didn't. I walked out completely after 50 minutes, it was just so slow, boring, very confusing, a lot of people are writing praise for the cast in this film, but they were just terrible in my opinion. The visuals were good but I have no idea what the rest of the film is like but the first half is so dull. Its a "Nope" from me.
